will also mean that Canadians can biiy rel-
atively less in the United States, with con-
S-6-quent decline in Canadian imports. In
short, Canada is doing with her new taxes
just what the United States is doing in a
variety of ways -trying to get forej.gri pay-
ments to her and foreign payments by her
into better balance. There is, true, some
sentiment against the United States, par-
tieularly in' cultural matters, among Can-
adians Who 'want to stay Canadian and
not become mere fae,,similes. But the new
tax measures arise from solid -and quite
unwhimsical economic considerations."

Dear Mr. Ellis:
- At present am teaching
school for the 4th Infantry Bri-
gade Grou,p in Soest, Germany.
I spent Christmas Eve in a
very -unique Austrian • village.
The village of Wagrain is situ-
ated in the Austrian Tyrols
south of Salzburg. This seclud-
ed mountain village has be-
come an historic landmark.
More often 'it is referred to as
the "Silent Night, Holy Night"
town.
Th -e &tory goes that -in the
middle nineteenth -century,
Joseph Mohr, with the assist -
wee of Franz Gruber, 'coin -
providing government grade and
weight controls 'far cattle sold
an a dressed weight -basis.The l'ady director of the fed-
eration, Mrs. Alex McGregor, of
-Kippen, suggested that, due to
t e
posed a new Christmas song to
be sung during :midnight _;mass.
Since the organ was Under re-
pair the new song was a,ccom-
pariled by a guitar.
Eivery year, the same ritual
diffieult economic position
is repeated. The song soot
'1 farmers, farm rwornen twill be famed P° arity and today
required 'to 'bake a heavier load" Silent Nig t" is sung by every -
'n active farm operation, Us- the *arid over.
